Helping The Homeless

To see a person without shelter should move us to help. Their stories carry pain. When we listen, serve, and stand alongside them, faith becomes tangible. Mercy moves from theory to touch, and the gospel gains hands and feet. Love without condition restores hope and reminds the forgotten that heaven remembers their name.

Prophetically, helping the homeless reorders our priorities and heals our communities. It breaks the lie that worth is measured by possessions and status. Generosity awakens justice, and kindness disarms fear. As we give time, food, presence, and prayer, God multiplies what is shared. Small acts become doorways to transformation, and streets become sanctuaries where grace speaks louder than judgment.

Scripture calls us to action: “Share your food with the hungry and open your homes to the homeless poor” (Isaiah 58:7 GNT). Obedient compassion reveals God’s nearness and invites renewal for all who receive and give freely.
